Today's Activity:

Everyday Science – Make A Prediction

Whenever my mother boiled water, when she was cooking spaghetti for example, she always sprinkled some salt into the water. When I asked her about the salt, she said that it made the water come to a boil faster.

I never did test that theory! Please find out if my mother was correct or if we just ate saltier spaghetti for the flavor.

Things to remember:

Use the same amount of water for each test

Some pans are specially built to get hot more quickly. Use similar pans.

If you use the same pan twice, make sure it has cooled back down before the second test.

Same is true for a burner. Make sure it has cooled before using it again.
